I think I might need some help with this and that if it hasn’t been written up that we should use my experience in getting this running to do the wiki page for it.

I have 2 reasonable references. 1 is a video and the other a web page.

They are…

[new users 2 links…]

[https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PCI\_passthrough\_via\_OVMF](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PCI_passthrough_via_OVMF)

I got as far as initramfs before hitting an unbootable computer.

I’ve tried Wine, Bottles, VirtualBox… and plenty of setting in everything but it seems with the AMD graphics card the best I get is 1hz screen.

I’ve scrubbed the system back to the server install with VMs.

Any clues before I start this?
